The sunlight streamed through my window. it was 6 am on Jovik and the town of New Hillcrest was waking up. I could hear Mrs Syth waking James, Millie and Alice up. Mr Syth must be cooking breakfast as I could smell pancakes. I got ready (just legging, a top, underclothes and a hoodie) and horrid down stairs. “Morning” he said over the top of his Jovik Gazette, he had a pancake on a plate and was sipping coffee. “Pancakes and coffee are on the table, do you take cream?” “Black” I replied. “Okay then, the kids will be up in a bit, I’ll get James and Millie to show you the stable before they head to school” “Thanks” I sat down and munched on my pancakes and coffee. We never had pancakes, or coffee, for breakfast at home, it was a nice surprise. James and Millie were down stairs in the nextt 5 minutes, dressed in their black uniform embroidered with “Epona Academy Senior”. After breakfast they showed me to the stable. I would be riding a horse called Shelly this week. She was quite tall and had a glossy light brown coat, I was in love! It was quite scary the first time I rode her, but I soon got used to her. We were outside in the paddock and by lunch time I’d gone into a trot, but we’d mainly been practising diagonals. After a picnic lunch (vegetables with a dip and more Jor-Cola). I decided to go sight seeing. Apparently there are several things to see and do around Jovik. Mrs Syth had given me a book of “5 afternoons of fun around Jovik”. So basically it looked like I’d be riding in the mornings and sightseeing in the afternoons. The first chapter spoke about Valedale, a walk through the woods, Valedale history museum and a beautiful lake. Mr Syth explained that in the afternoons he worked at Moorland as a manager for the Bobcat Girls (something the local race team hated). He drove me up and dropped me at Valedale. I thanked him and decided to take a circular tour of the woods. It was truly beautiful. The dark green trees and the singing birds.I let out a sigh of content before heading back to the village. Some children were swimming in the stream. Playing under the bridge; floating down the river. The older children - my age- sat on a rock and let the waterfall water tickle their toes. I could see the clothing wasn’t a big thing here. Both boys and girls wore tunics that tied up at the top. It looked like all the children were in the water, about 50 of them, a whole town. “The people of Valedale mainly work in the forests. Harvesting natural goods and catching fish in the river. There is a small school which all children between 3 and 15 must attend.” I looked around the museum. It told of 5 girls who had saved Jovik many a time. Actually I found it quite interesting. I headed outside and made my way to the lake. A small shop there sold me some smoked fish and cheese which I ate happily by the water side. I loved Valedale! I got a taxi back to New Hillcrest and fell into bed. The first of many long days!
